Features and Benefits
Construction
UL-listed products—
Safety and reliability are vital in commercial construction. All VariTrane™ units are listed inaccordance with UL -1995 as terminal units.This listing includes the VAV terminal with electricheaters. Additionally, all insulation materials pass UL 25/50 smoke and flame safety standards.
AHRI Certified Performance—
All VariTrane units are AHRI certified. AHRI 880 guarantees the pressure drop, flow performance,and acoustical performance provided is reliable and has been tested in accordance with industryaccepted standards. AHRI 885 uses AHRI 880 performance and applies accepted industry methodsto estimate expected “NC” sound levels within the occupied space.
Casing Design—
Interlocking Panels—VariTrane products are manufactured inTrane’s state-of-the-art facility in theU. S.The interlocking panels are designed using integral I-beam construction technology.Thisminimizes deformation and creates tremendous product rigidity.An additional benefit is a smoothunit exterior with few exposed screws—ideal for exposed ceiling applications.VariTrane units aredesigned for use in systems that operate up to 5" w.c. of inlet pressure.
Metal Encapsulated Edges—AllVariTrane units are completewith encapsulated edges to arrest cut fibers and preventinsulation erosion into the airstream.This is the standard ofcare in applications concerned with fiberglass erosion orprojects with either double-wall or externally wrapped ductwork.
TheTrane Air Valve—is at the heart of VariTrane terminalunits.This is where airflow is measured and controlled.Repeatability and ruggedness is vital.VariTrane products arethe most rugged and reliable available.
18-gage Cylinder—limits deformation or damage during shipment and job site handling, andprovides even airflow distribution across the flow ring for unmatched airflow measurementaccuracy.
ContinuouslyWelded Seam — an automated weld process creates the highest quality continuousseam, which is “right” every time.The welded seam improves air valve rigidity and createsconsistent and repeatable airflow across the flow measurement device.The result is a truly roundcylinder, with no flat spots caused by lower quality crimping and riviting technologies.
Flow Ring—TheTrane flow ring is time tested to perform under themost demanding conditions. Additionally,Trane’s patented flow ringis recessed within the air valve cylinder to reduce the potential fordamage during job site handling and installation.
External Shaft—This simple design provides controller flexibility and is designed to facilitateactuator field replacement.
VAV-PRC011-EN 5
Features and Benefits
Position Indicator—The position indicator shows current air valve position to aid in systemcommissioning. Many times this can be seen from the floor without climbing a ladder.
ExternalActuator—This feature increases serviceability, control system compatibility, and actuatorclutch access for simplified commissioning.
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Features
The oil embargo of the early 1970s created an energy crisis, which resulted in tighter buildings, andreduced ventilation rates. A fallout issue of tighter building construction was poor indoor airquality.This heightened IAQ awareness. IAQ issues have been featured in publications from thesmallest towns to the largest cities. System design should consider applicable ventilation and IAQstandards.(See your localTrane Sales Engineer or visit www.trane.com for additionalinformation). Good indoor air quality results from units and systems which:
• Provide the required amount of ventilation air to each zone during all operating conditions
• Limit particulates from entering occupied spaces
VariTrane units are designed with simplified access and a full line of insulation options including:
Matte-faced—Typical industry standard with reduced first cost.
Closed-cell—This insulation has an R-value and performance equivalent to matte-faced insulation.The main difference is the reduction of water vapor transmission. Closed-cell is designed for usein installations with a high chance of water formation. (It has been used to coat the exterior of chillerevaporator barrels for many years.)
Foil-faced—A fiberglass insulation with a thin aluminum coating on the air stream side to preventfibers from becoming airborne.The aluminum lining is acceptable for many applications, howeverit is not as rugged as double-wall.
Double-wall—Premium insulation often used in many health care applications with insulationlocked between metal liners.This eliminates the possibility for insulation entering the airstreamand allows for unit interior wipe-down as needed.
VariTrane VAV units are the most prepared IAQ units in the industry.The end result is a reliableproduct designed for peak performance, regardless of job site conditions or handling.

10 VAV-PRC011-EN
Agency Certifications
There are numerous regulations and standards in the industry that determine the construction andperformance parameters for VAV terminal units. Some of the more important of those standardsand regulations are listed below, along with a brief description of what each one addresses.
American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE) - 41.1
ASHRAE - 41.2
ASHRAE - 41.3
These standards specify methods for temperature measurement (41.1), laboratory airflowmeasurement (41.2), and pressure measurement (41.3).While none of these standards specificallydiscusses VAV air terminals, they discuss topics that are aspects of terminal box systems.Therefore, some engineers will include these standards in their specifications as a primer onaccepted measurement techniques.
ASHRAE - 62
This standard specifies the minimum ventilation rates and indoor air quality that are acceptable foroccupied spaces.
ASHRAE - 111
This standard calls out procedures to be followed for testing and balancing HVAC systems. Itincludes descriptions of the equipment used, procedures followed, and field changes that must bemade when a system is balanced.
Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI)
AHRI 880 - 2011
This standard sets forth classifications, performance testing requirements, and test resultsreporting requirements for air terminal units.The standard contains very detailed procedures thatare to be followed for the testing and certification program associated with this standard.This isone of the most commonly referenced standards in the VAV terminal unit industry.The AHRI-880certification program is designed to police the accuracy of documented performance for terminalunits.The certification program requires a sampling of at least four units be tested annually.Thetested units are chosen at random by AHRI and sent to an independent laboratory for the testing.The performance is tested at one specific operating condition.The operating characteristics testedinclude discharge and radiated sound power (for the damper and, in the case of fan-poweredboxes, the fan), wide-open damper pressure drop, and fan motor amp draw.VariTrane terminalunits are certified according to AHRI-880.
AHRI 885-2008
This document provides a procedure to estimate sound pressure levels in an occupied space.Thestandard accounts for the amount of sound pressure in the space due to the VAV air terminal,diffusers and their connecting low pressure ductwork. While sound generated from the centralsystem fan and ductwork may be a significant factor in determining the sound pressure level in theroom, this standard does not address those factors. It focuses solely on theVAV terminal and itemsdownstream of it.This standard is related to AHRI-880 by using sound power determined usingAHRI-880 methodology as a starting point for the AHRI-885 procedure.
Underwriter’s Laboratory (UL) 1995
Underwriter’s Laboratory is an independent testing agency that examines products anddetermines if those products meet safety requirements. Equipment manufacturers strive to meetUL guidelines and obtain listing and classifications for their products because customers recognizeUL approval as a measure of a safely designed product. VariTrane VAV air terminals are listedper UL-1995, Heating and Cooling Equipment.The terminals are listed as an entire assembly.
VAV-PRC011-EN 11
Agency Certifications
National Fire Protection Association
NFPA 70
This standard is also known as the National Electrical Code (NEC).The Code gives standards forinstallation of wiring and electrical equipment for most types of commercial and residentialbuildings. It is often referred to inVAV air terminal specifications when fan-powered boxes, electricheat or electric controls are included.
NFPA 90A
This standard does not speak directly to VAV air terminals but does discuss central systemconsiderations pertaining to a fire and/or smoke condition.The standard discusses safetyrequirements in design and construction that should be followed to keep the air-handling systemfrom spreading a fire or smoke.The standard specifies practices that are intended to stop fire andsmoke from spreading through a duct system, keep the fire-resistive properties of certain buildingstructures (fire walls, etc.) intact, and minimize fire ignition sources and combustible materials.

Single-Duct VAVTerminal Units
The features of the single-ductVAV terminal units are described by the product categories shownin bold. Within each category the available options are listed.
Selection Procedure
This section describes the catalog selection of single-duct VAV terminal units with specificexamples. A computer selection program is also available to aid in selection ofVAV terminal units.Selection of single-duct VAV terminal units can involve three elements:
• Air valve selection
• Heating coil selection (if required)
• Acoustics controls
Air Valve Selection
The wide-open static pressure and airflows are found in the performance data section of thecatalog.To select an air valve, locate the required design cooling airflow for your terminal unit typeand find the smallest air valve size that has a pressure drop equal to or lower than the maximumwide-open static pressure requirement.
Selection Example: Cooling Only VCCFTerminal Unit
Design cooling airflow: 1700 cfm
Maximum wide open Air pressure drop: 0.25 in. wg
Minimum cooling airflow: 850 cfm
From the performance data charts, select a valve size 12, which has a wide-open static pressuredrop of 0.01 in. wg
Check the minimum and maximum cfm desired with the minimum and maximum cfm allowed inthe table in the general data section.The maximum setting of 1700 cfm is within the acceptablerange.The desired minimum setting of 850 cfm is acceptable for the cooling only box desired. Notethat if an electric reheat box was selected, the minimum cfm would be dependent upon the kW ofthe electric heater. (See Electric Heat Unit Selection.)
Heating Coil Selection (If required)
First, determine the amount of heat required to meet space and downstream duct heat losses froma load calculation.
Hot Water Heat
Select a hot water coil sufficient to meet the design heat loss.
Example:
VCWF, Hot Water Unit Heat, Size 12 (See air Valve Selection)
Heating airflow: 850 cfm
Hot water flow: 1.0 gpm
Design Heat Loss: Q =25 MBh
Select hot water coil from the coil performance table in the Performance Data section of the catalog.
Selection:
A one-row coil is sufficient to meet design conditions. From the HotWater Coil Capacity Data of thePerformance Data Section, a one-row coil for a size 12 air valve will operate at the above conditionsas follows:
Coil Capacity: 25.17 MBh
Water pressure drop: 0.72 ft WPD
VAV-PRC011-EN 15
Single-Duct VAVTerminal Units
Air pressure drop (APD) of the hot water coil is included in the chart preceding the hot water coilperformance data section.
APD = 0.35 in. wg
Electric Heat
Determine the kW required to meet zone design heat loss.
kW=MBh / 3.414
MBh=Design Heat Loss
Select the nearest available kW with voltage and steps desired from the electric heater kW guidelinetable in the Performance Data section of the catalog.
Example:
VCEF, Electric Unit Heat, Size 12 (See Air Valve Selection)
Heating airflow: 850 cfm
Voltage: 277/60/1 VAC
Design Heat Loss: Q=25 MBh
kW=Q/3.414kW=25/3.414kW=7.3
Selection:
Select 7.5 kW from the electric heat table in the voltage and stages required.The table shows theminimum cfm allowable for the kW selected.The static pressure requirement is shown as 0.06 in.wg for this example with a design cooling flow of 1700 cfm.
Check Leaving AirTemperature:
T is the primary entering air temperature 55°F for this example.
Decide if leaving air temperature of 82.8°F is satisfactory for your application.
Acoustics
The acoustical data found in the "Performance Data" section of the VAV catalog is used to make adetermination of the amount of noise the terminal unit will generate. Locate the table for the VAVterminal unit of interest. Sound power data and an equivalent NC level for an AHRI 885-2008transfer function is listed.
Example:
VCCF, Cooling-OnlyTerminal Unit, Size 10 (See air Valve Selection)
Cooling Airflow: 1100 cfm
Maximum inlet static pressure: 1.5 in. wg
Interpolation gives sound power data of:
The NC level above is determined by using either the catalog’s AHRI 885-2008 mineral fiber forradiated sound transfer function for the conditions shown in the acoustics table. A differenttransfer function could be applied as conditions dictate.

Single-Duct VAVTerminal Units
The maximum NC level is NC-29. If the maximum NC level was exceeded, it would have beennecessary to reselect the next larger unit size.
Computer Selection
The advent of personal computers has served to automate many processes that were previouslyrepetitive and time-consuming. One of those tasks is the proper scheduling, sizing, and selectionof VAV terminal units.Trane has developed a computer program to perform these tasks.Thesoftware is called theTrane Official Product Selection System (TOPSS).
TheTOPSS program will take the input specifications and output the properly sizedVariTraneVAVterminal unit along with the specific performance for that size unit.
The program has several required fields, denoted by red shading in theTOPSS screen, and manyother optional fields to meet the criteria you have. Required values include maximum andminimum airflows, control type, and model. If selecting models with reheat, you will be requiredto enter information to make that selection also.The user is given the option to look at all theinformation for one selection on one screen or as a schedule with the other VAV units on the job.
The user can select single-duct, dual-duct, and fan-powered VAV boxes with the program, as wellas most otherTrane products, allowing you to select all yourTrane equipment with one softwareprogram.
The program will also calculate sound power data for the selected terminal unit.The user can entera maximum individual sound level for each octave band or a maximum NC value.The program willcalculate acoustical data subject to default or user supplied sound attenuation data.
Schedule View
The program has many time-saving features such as: 1) Copy/Paste from spreadsheets likeMicrosoft® Excel; 2) Easily arranged fields to match your schedule; and 3)Time-saving templatesto store default settings.
The user can also export the Schedule View to Excel to modify and put into a CAD drawing as aschedule. Specific details regarding the program, its operation, and how to obtain a copy of it areavailable from your localTrane sales office.

Hot Water Reheat Coil Notes (SI)
1. Fouling Factor = 0.0005
2. Capacity based on 12°C entering air temperature and 82°C entering water temperature. Referto correction factors found in Table 15, p. 28 and Table 16, p. 28 for different enteringconditions.
3. The following equations may be used in calculating Leaving AirTemperature (LAT) and WaterTemperature Difference (WTD).
LAT = EAT + (kW x 0.83 / L/s)
WTD = EWT - LWT = (kW / (4.19) L/s)
4. For premium coils (.020” wall), side pressure drop increasesx 17% and water velocity increases7% for fixed GPM.

Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA) Equation
• MCA = heater amps x 1.25
Maximum Overcurrent Protection (MOP) Equation
• MOP = heater amps
• However since MOP is less than or equal to MCA, then choose next fuse greater than MCA.
• Units without electric reheat would use smallest fuse sizing.
Standard Fuse Sizes: 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, and 60.Example–For MOP of Single-Duct UnitA model VCEF, electric reheat unit size 14 has 480/3 phase 15 kW electric reheat with 2 stages.15 kW – 480/3 heater15x1000/480x1.73=18.06MCA = 18.06 x 1.25 = 22.58 amps. Since MOP is less than or equal to MCA, then MOP = 25.

Dual-Duct VAVTerminal Units
Dual-duct units have two air valves. One heating valve and one cooling air valve modulatesimultaneously to provide occupant comfort.These systems were popular prior to the energy crisisof the early 1970s. Popularity is increasing with system concepts which use one valve formaintaining and monitoring 100% ventilation air.
The features of the dual-ductVAV terminal units are described by the product categories shown inbold. Within each category the options available are listed
Selection Procedure
This section describes the catalog selection of dual-ductVAV terminal units with specific examples.A computer selection program is also available to aid in selection of VAV terminal units.
Selection of dual-duct VAV terminal units can involve two elements:
• Air valve selection
• Acoustics
Air Valve Selection
The wide-open static pressure and airflows are found in the performance data section of thecatalog.To select the air valves, locate the required design cooling and heating airflows for yourterminal unit type and find their vertical intersection, with the smallest air valve size that has apressure drop equal to or lower than the maximum wide-open static pressure requirement.
Example:VDDFTerminal Unit Design cooling airflow: 1000 cfmMaximum wide-open Air pressure drop: 0.25 in. wgMinimum cooling airflow: 500 cfmDesign heating airflow: 1000 cfmMaximum wide-open Air pressure drop: 0.25 in. wgMinimum heating airflow: 400 cfm
From the performance data charts, select a valve size 10 for cooling, which has a wide-open staticpressure drop of 0.09 in. wg. Select a size 10 for heating, which has a wide-open static pressure dropof 0.09 in. wg.
Check the minimum and maximum cfm desired with the minimum and maximum cfm allowed inthe table in the general data section.The maximum setting of 1000 cfm is within the acceptablerange.The desired minimum setting of 500 cfm is acceptable for the unit desired.
Acoustics
The acoustical data found in the "Performance Data" section of the VAV catalog is used to make adetermination of the amount of noise the terminal unit will generate. Locate the table for the VAV
Figure 1. Dual duct terminal unit

Dual-Duct VAVTerminal Units
terminal unit of interest. Sound power data and an equivalent NC level for an AHRI 885-2008transfer function is listed.
Example:VDDF, Cooling-OnlyTerminal Unit, Size 10 cooling, Size 10 heating (See air Valve Selection)Cooling Airflow: 1000 cfmMax. inlet static pressure: 1.5 in. wgHeating Airflow: 1000 cfmMax. inlet static pressure: 1.5 in. wg
Interpolation gives sound power data of:
The NC level above is determined by using either the catalog’s AHRI 885-2008 (mineral fiber forradiated sound) transfer function for the conditions shown in the acoustics table. A differenttransfer function could be applied as conditions dictate.
The maximum NC level is NC-40. If the maximum NC level was exceeded, it would have beennecessary to reselect the next larger unit size.
Computer Selection
The advent of personal computers has served to automate many processes that were previouslyrepetitive and time-consuming. One of those tasks is the proper scheduling, sizing, and selectionof VAV terminal units.Trane has developed a computer program to perform these tasks.Thesoftware is called theTrane Official Product Selection System (TOPSS).
TheTOPSS program will take the user’s input specifications and output the properly sizedVariTrane VAV terminal unit along with the specific performance for that size unit.
The program has several required fields, denoted by red shading in theTOPSS program, and manyother optional fields to meet the criteria you have. Required values include maximum andminimum airflows, control type, and model. If selecting models with reheat, you will be requiredto enter information to make that selection also.The user is given the option to look at all theinformation for one selection on one screen or as a schedule with the other VAV units on the job.
The user can select single-duct, dual-duct, and fan-powered VAV boxes with the program, as wellas most otherTrane products, allowing you to select all yourTrane equipment with one softwareprogram.
The program will also calculate sound power data for the selected terminal unit.The user can entera maximum individual sound level for each octave band or a maximum NC value.The program willcalculate acoustical data subject to default or user supplied sound attenuation data.
Schedule View:The program has many time-saving features such as: 1) Copy/Paste fromspreadsheets like Microsoft® Excel; 2) Easily arranged fields to match your schedule; and 3)Time-saving templates to store default settingsThe user can also export the Schedule View to Excel tomodify and put into a CAD drawing as a schedule. Details regarding the program, its operation, andhow to obtain a copy of it are available from your localTrane sales office.

fully-opened and -closed positions. Internal electronic control prevents motor stall when motorreaches end stops.
Direct Digital Controller—The microprocessor based terminal unit controller provides accurate,pressure-independent control through the use of a proportional integral control algorithm anddirect digital control technology.The controller, named the Unit Control Module (UCM), monitorszone temperature setpoints, zone temperature and its rate of change, and valve airflow using adifferential pressure signal from the pressure transducer. Additionally, the controller can monitoreither supply duct air temperature or CO2 concentration via appropriate sensors.The controller isprovided in an enclosure with 7/8" (22 mm) knockouts for remote control wiring. ATrane UCM zonesensor is required.
DDC Zone Sensor—The UCM controller senses zone temperature through a sensing elementlocated in the zone sensor. In addition to the sensing element, zone sensor options may include anexternally-adjustable setpoint, communications jack for use with a portable edit device, and anoverride button to change the individual controller from unoccupied to occupied mode.Theoverride button has a cancel feature that will return the system to unoccupied.Wired zone sensorsutilize a thermistor to vary the voltage output in response to changes in the zone temperature.Wiring to the UCM controller must be 18 to 22 awg. twisted pair wiring.The setpoint adjustmentrange is 50–88ºF (10–31°C). Depending upon the features available in the model of sensor selected,the zone sensor may require from a 2-wire to a 5-wire connection.Wireless zone sensors report thesame zone information as wired zone sensors, but do so using radio transmitter technology.Therefore with wireless, wiring from the zone sensor to the UCM is unnecessary.
Digital Display Zone Sensor with Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)—The digital display zonesensor contains a sensing element, which sends a signal to the UCM.A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)displays setpoint or space temperature. Sensor buttons allow the user to adjust setpoints, andallow space temperature readings to be turned on or off.The digital display zone sensor alsoincludes a communication jack, for use with a portable edit device, and an override button tochange the UCM from unoccupied to occupied.The override button has a cancel feature, whichreturns the system to unoccupied mode.
System Communications—The Controller is designed to send and receive data from aTracer™SC or otherTrane controllers. Current unit status conditions and setpoints may be monitored and/or edited via this data communication feature.The network type is a twisted wire pair shieldedserial communication.
PNEUMATIC CONTROLS
Normally-OpenActuator—Pneumatic 3 to 8 psig (20 to 55 kPa) spring-range pneumatic actuator.
Normally-Closed Actuato—Pneumatic 8 to 13 psig (55 to 90 kPa) spring-range pneumaticactuator.
3011 Pneumatic Volume Regulator (PVR)—The regulator is a thermostat reset velocitycontroller, which provides consistent air delivery within 5% of cataloged flow down to 18% or lessof unit cataloged cfm, independent of changes in system static pressure. Factory-calibrated, field-adjustable setpoints for minimum and maximum flows. Average total unit bleed rate, excludingthermostat, is 28.8 scim at 20 psig (7.87 mL/min at 138 kPa) supply.
3501 Pneumatic Volume Regulator (PVR)—The 3501 regulator is a linear reset volumecontroller.This PVR is used to maintain a constant volume of airflow from the dual-duct unit whenconstant volume control is used. Average total unit bleed rate, excluding thermostat, is 43.2 scimat 20 psig (11.8 mL/min at 138 kPa) supply.

Fuse – Optional fuse is factory-installed in the primary voltage hot leg.
VAV-PRC011-EN 69
DDC Controls
Control Logic
DDC controllers are today’s industry standard. DDC controllers provide system-level data used tooptimize system performance. Variables such as occupied/unoccupied status, minimum andmaximum airflow setpoints, temperature and temperature setpoints, valve position, fan status (onor off, and mode of operation: series or parallel), reheat status (on or off), box type and air valvesize, temperature correction offsets, flow correction values, ventilation fraction, etc. are availableon a simple twisted-shielded wire pair.
Trane DDC controllers provideTrane-designed, solid-state electronics intended specifically forVAVtemperature control in space comfort applications. DDC control capabilities include:
• Proportional plus integral control loop algorithm for determining required airflow needed tocontrol room temperature. Airflow is limited by active minimum and maximum airflowsetpoints.
• Pressure-independent (PI) operation, which automatically adjusts valve position to maintainrequired airflow. In certain low-flow situations or in cases where the flow measurement hasfailed, the DDC controller will operate in a pressure-dependent (PD) mode of operation.
• Cooling and heating control action of air valve. In cooling control action, the DDC controllermatches cooling airflow to cooling load. In heating control action, the DDC controller matchesthe heating airflow to control heating load.The DDC controller will automatically change overto cooling control action if the supply air temperature is below the room temperature and willautomatically change over to heating control action if the supply air temperature is 10°F or moreabove the room temperature. If the supply air temperature is between the room temperatureand the room temperature plus 10°F, then the DDC controller will provide the active minimumairflow.The DDC controller first chooses theTracer™ SC -supplied supply air temperature valueto use for auto changeover. If this is not available, it uses the temperature provided by theoptional auxiliary temperature sensor. If this is also not available, it uses the heating/coolingmode assigned byTracer SC or the DDC controller’s service tool (Everyware™or Rover™ V4).
• Multiple reheat control options including staged electric, staged hot-water (normally on ornormally off), proportional hot-water, and slow pulsed width modulation. Modulating reheatoptions utilize a separate reheat proportional-plus-integral control loop from that controllingairflow into the room. Staged reheat options utilize a control algorithm based on heatingsetpoint and room temperature.
• 24VAC binary input that can be configured as a generic input or as occupancy input.When theDDC controller is operation withTracer SC, the status of the input is provided toTracer SC forits action. In stand-alone operation and when configured for an occupancy input, the input willcontrol occupancy status of the DDC controller.
• Auxiliary temperature analog input that can be configured for an auxiliary temperature sensoror a 2-to-10VDC CO2 sensor.When sensor is mounted in the supply air duct and configured fortemperature, the value of the input is used as status-only byTracer SC ifTracer SC is providinga supply air temperature to the DDC controller. Otherwise, the input will be used fordetermining control action of the DDC controller.When configured for a CO2 sensor, the valueof the input is used as a status-only input byTracer SC.
• Dual-duct support with two DDC controllers. One DDC controller controls the cooling air valveand the other controller controls the heating air valve. With constant-volume sequences, thedischarge air volume is held constant by controlling discharge air volume with the heatingUCM.

DDC Remote Heat Control Options
When heat is added to the primary air at the VAV unit before it enters the zone, the air is said tobe reheated.The operating characteristics of the four basic types ofVariTrane DDC terminal reheatare discussed.
Single-Duct: On/Off Hot Water Reheat
Three stages of on/off hot water reheat are available.The water valves used are 2-position and areeither fully-opened or fully-closed.The heating minimum airflow setpoint is enabled during reheat.
Stage 1 energizes when the space temperature is at or below the heating setpoint.When the zonetemperature rises above the active heating setpoint by 0.5°F (0.28°C), stage 1 is de-energized. Stage2 energizes when the space temperature is 1°F (0.56°C) or more below the active heating setpoint,and is de-energized when the space temperature is 0.5°F (0.28°C) below the active heating setpoint.Stage 3 energizes when the zone temperature is 2°F (1.11°C) or more below the active heatingsetpoint, and de-energizes when the space temperature is 1.5°F (0.83°C) below the active heatingsetpoint. When reheat is de-energized, the cooling minimum airflow setpoint is activated.
Single-Duct: Proportional Hot Water Reheat
Proportional hot water reheat uses 3-wire floating-point-actuator technology.The heatingminimum airflow setpoint is enabled during reheat.
The water valve opens as space temperature drops below the heating setpoint. Water valveposition is dependent on both the degree that space temperature is below the active heatingsetpoint and the time that the space temperature has been below the active heating setpoint. If notalready closed, the water valve fully closes when the zone temperature rises above the activeheating setpoint by 0.5 °F (0.28 °C). An additional on/off remote heat output is available andenergized when the proportional valve is driven 100% open and de-energized when theproportional valve reaches 50% open.When reheat is de-energized, the cooling minimum airflowsetpoint is activated.

Single-Duct: On/Off Electric Reheat
Three stages of staged electric reheat are available.The heating minimum airflow setpoint isenabled during reheat.
Stage 1 is energized when the space temperature falls below the active heating setpoint andminimum airflow requirements are met.When the zone temperature rises above the active heatingsetpoint by 0.5°F (0.28°C), stage 1 is de-energized. Stage 2 energizes when the space temperatureis 1°F (0.56°C) or more below the active heating setpoint, and is de-energized when the spacetemperature is 0.5°F (0.28°C) below the active heating setpoint. Stage 3 energizes when the zonetemperature is 2°F (1.11°C) or more below the active heating setpoint, and de-energizes when thespace temperature is 1.5°F (0.83°C) below the active heating setpoint.When reheat is de-energized,the cooling minimum airflow setpoint is activated.
Single-Duct: Pulse-Width Modulation of Electric Heat
Electric heat is modulated by energizing for a portion of a three-minute time period.The heatingminimum airflow setpoint is enabled during reheat.This allows exact load matching for energyefficient operation, and optimum zone temperature control. One or two stages can be used.
The amount of reheat supplied is dependent on both the degree that space temperature is belowthe active heating setpoint and the time that the space temperature has been below the activeheating setpoint. If not already off, reheat de-energizes when the zone temperature rises more than0.5°F (0.28°C) above the heating setpoint.
The Stage 1 “on” time is proportional to the amount of reheat required. For example, when 50%of stage 1 capacity is required, reheat is on for 90 seconds and off for 90 seconds. When 75% ofstage 1 capacity is required, reheat is on for 135 seconds and off for 45 seconds. When 100% ofstage 1 capacity is required, reheat is on continuously.
Stage 2 uses the same “on” time logic as stage 1 listed above, except stage 1 is always energized.For example, when 75% of unit capacity is required, stage 1 is energized continuously, and stage2 is on for 90 seconds and off for 90 seconds. When reheat is de-energized, the cooling minimumairflow setpoint is activated.

Tracer UC400 and UC210 Programmable BACnet Controllers
Introduction
TheTracer™ UC400 and UC210 controllers areprogrammable general purpose BACnet™,microprocessor-based, Direct Digital Controllers (DDC). When factory installed onTrane (VariableAirVolume)VAV terminal units, they are factory downloaded with appropriateVAV programs andconfiguration settings.TraneVAV units have been made with either pneumatic, analog electronic,or microprocessor controls (DDC VAV). UC400 is not an option on Dual Duct.
TheTracer UC400 or UC210 controller can be configured from the factory with three differentapplication programs: SpaceTemperature Control (STC),Ventilation Flow Control (VFC), and FlowTracking Control (FTC).
TheTracer UC400 or UC210 controller programmed for STC modulates a VAV's damper bladebased on a zone temperature, measured airflow, and setpoints to continuously control conditionedair delivery to the space.The volume of incoming air is monitored and the damper adjusts toprovide accurate control independent of the duct pressure.The damper modulates betweenoperator setpoints depending on space conditions. Additionally, fan and heat outputs may beenergized depending on the application.
TheTracer UC400 or UC210 controller configured forVFC can be applied to aVAV terminal and usedto temper cold outdoor air (OA) that is brought into a building for ventilation purposes.Thetempered air is intended to supply an air-handling unit (AHU), which provides comfort control tothe zones it is serving.The VAV terminal supplies the correct amount of ventilation air, and whenreheat is added, tempers the ventilation air to reduce the load on the air handler by sensing thedischarge air temperature of the VAV unit and controlling its long-term average to the dischargeair temperature setpoint.
TheTracer UC400 or UC210 controller can be configured for FTC and has twoVAV units withTracerUC400 or UC210 controllers working together to provide flow tracking control. OneTracer UC400or UC210 controller is configured from the factory with the Space temperature program and theother is downloaded with the FTC program.The STC airflow output is bound to the flow trackingcontroller airflow setpoint input.The flow tracking controller adds the configured airflow trackingoffset (positive or negative) to the airflow setpoint (communicated airflow setpoint) and controlsthe airflow to this setpoint.
TheTracer UC400 or UC210 controller is BTL compliant with BACnet, an open standard buildingautomation protocol. It meets the Application Specific Controller (ASC) profile per ASHRAE 135-2004.This allows theTracer UC400 controller to integrate with other BACnet systems.
Available Inputs
Inputs include a twisted/shielded communication link, zone sensor, duct temperature sensors(optional), Occupancy Sensor (optional), Discharge AirTemperature (DAT) and/or Supply AirTemperature (SAT), CO2 sensor, and 24 VAC power. In addition to the points used for the VAVapplication, the spare inputs and outputs on theTracer UC400 controller may be used for ancillarycontrol, which can be programmed usingTracerTUTracer Graphical Programming 2 (TGP2).
Note: For more information on using spare points, see BAS-SVX20*-ENTracer UC400Programmable Controller Installation, Operation, and Maintenance.
General Features and Benefits
Assured Accuracy
• Proportional-plus-integral control loop algorithm for determining required airflow needed tocontrol room temperature. Airflow is limited by active minimum and maximum airflowsetpoints.
VAV-PRC011-EN 75
DDC Controls
• Pressure-independent (PI) operation that automatically adjusts valve position to maintainrequired airflow. In certain low-flow situations or in cases where the flow measurement hasfailed, the DDC controller will operate in a pressure-dependent (PD) mode of operation.
• When combined with the patentedTrane Flow ring and pressure transducer, flow is repeatableto +/- 5% accuracy across the Pressure Independent (PI) flow range. (See Valve/ControllerAirflow Guidelines section).
• Improved 2-Point Air Balancing is available – Assures optimized flow-sensing accuracy acrossthe operating range.This provides a more accurate airflow balancing method when comparedto typical single-point flow correction air balancing.
• Analog input resolution of +/- 1/8°F within the comfort range maximizes zone temperaturecontrol yielding excellent comfort control.
Reliable Operation
• Built for life –Trane products are designed to stand the test of time, with a proven design lifethat exceeds 20 years.
• Fully factory tested – fully screened and configured at the factory. All features are testedincluding fan and reheat stage energization, air valve modulation, and controller inputs andoutputs.
Safe Operation
• All components, including the controller, pressure transducer, transformer, etc. are mountedin a NEMA 1 sheet metal enclosure and are tested as an assembly to UL1995 standards.Theresult is a rugged and safe VAV, controller, and thus, overall unit.
• When in PI-mode, EH is disabled when the sensed flow is below the minimum required.
• HW coilVAV units in ventilation flow control (VFC) have a Freeze protection algorithm to protectthe water coil and the internal space from water damage.This is accomplished by driving thewater valve to maximum position on alarm conditions.
System-Level Optimization
Trane controllers are designed to integrate intoTraneTracer™ Building Automation Systems andleverage clear and clean unit-controller related data for system level control decisions. IntegratingaTraneVV550 controller into aTracer SC Control System provides the next step in building systemcontrol.
Specifically, system-level decisions on how to operate all components can be made. Energyefficient optimization strategies like Static Pressure Optimization, Ventilation Reset, and CO2Demand-controlledVentilation can be employed with the simple press of a button.The end-resultis the most efficient and reliable building control system available.
Simplified Installation
Factory Commissioned Quality – AllTrane DDC VAV controllers are factory-commissioned.Thismeans that the DDC boards are powered and run-tested with your specific sequence parameters.They are connected to a communication link to make sure that information and diagnostic datafunction properly. Before anyVariTrane™VAV unit ships they must pass a rigorous quality controlprocedure.You can be assured that aTrane VAV unit withTrane DDC VAV controls will work rightout of the crate.
Zone sensor air balance – When applied to aTrane zone sensor with thumbwheel and on/cancelbuttons, a balancing contractor can drive the primary air valve to maximum or minimum airflowfrom the sensor to determine the point of calibration to be used (maximum will result in optimumperformance).The flow reading can then be calibrated from the sensor, without the use ofadditional service tools. (Non-LCD versions)
Tenant-Finish Heat Mode – In some office projects, the building is being constructed as tenants arebeing identified.Tenant-finish heat mode is designed for applications when a given floor has not

been occupied.The main AHU system is used for heat and because the internal furnishings are notcomplete, the sensors have not been installed. In this case, the primary valve drives open usingthe heat of the main AHU to keep plumbing lines from freezing. When available, the operation ofthe VAV unit fan (series or parallel) remains unaffected.
Controller Flexibility
• 24VAC binary input that can be configured as a generic input or as occupancy input.When theDDC controller is operating with aTracer ™ SC, the status of the input is provided toTracer forits action. In stand-alone operation and when configured for an occupancy input, the input willcontrol occupancy status of the DDC controller.
• Auxiliary temperature analog input configured for an auxiliary temperature sensor. Whensensor is mounted in the supply air duct, the value of the input is used as status-only byTracerSC ifTracer SC is providing a supply air temperature to the DDC controller. Otherwise, the inputwill be used for determining heating/cooling control action of theVAV unit.When the auxiliarytemperature sensor is located in the discharge of the unit, and attached to aTraneTracer SCBAS, additional test sequencing and reporting is available to maximizeVAV system capabilitiesand simplify system commissioning.
• Dual-duct support with two DDC controllers. One DDC controller controls the cooling air valveand the other controller controls the heating air valve. With constant-volume sequences, thedischarge air volume is held constant by controlling discharge air volume with the heatingController.
• Tracer™ UC400 or UC210 Programmable BACnet Controller certified performance ensures thataTrane VAV with controller will provide state-of-the-art, consistent open communicationprotocol for integration with the industry’s latest (Non-Trane) building automation controlsystems, including Johnson Control, Andover, Siemans, Honeywell, etc.
• CO2 demand controlled ventilation enables a HVAC system to adjust ventilation flow based oncritical zone, average CO2 of specified zones, etc.Trane demand controlled ventilationstrategies are pre-defined for simplified application and can be easily customized to meet theneeds of a specific system.
Trane DDC VAV Controller Logic
Control Logic
Direct Digital Control (DDC) controllers are today’s industry standard. DDC controllers sharesystem-level data to optimize system performance (including changing ventilation requirements,system static pressures, supply air temperatures, etc.). Variables available via a simple twisted-shielded wire pair include occupied/unoccupied status, minimum and maximum airflow setpoints,zone temperature and temperature setpoints, air valve position, airflow cfm, fan status (on or off),fan operation mode (parallel or series), reheat status (on or off), VAV unit type, air valve size,temperature correction offsets, flow correction values, ventilation fraction, etc.
With the advent ofTracer UC400 open protocol, the most reliable VAV controller is now availablefor ANY system. Gone are the days of being locked into a single supplier.Trane DDC controllersprovideTrane-designed solid-state electronics intended specifically forVAV applications including:
1. SpaceTemperature Control
2. Ventilation Flow Control (100% outside air applications)
3. FlowTracking Space Pressurization Control (New feature)
VAV-PRC011-EN 77
DDC Controls
Note: Flow sensor DP (in. wg) is measured at the flow ring to aid in system balancing and commissioning. See “Valve/Controller Airflow Guidelines” in each section for unit performance.
SpaceTemperature Control
Space temperature control applications are whereTrane emerged as an industry leader in qualityand reliability.This did not occur overnight and has continued to improve as our controller andcontrol logic has improved over time. STC employs controller logic designed to modulate thesupply airstream and associated reheat (either local or remote) to exactly match the loadrequirements of the space.
Additionally, minimum and maximum airflow and specific controller sequence requirements arepre-programmed to ensure that appropriate ventilation standards are consistently maintained.When connected to aTraneTracer™ SC control system, trend logging, remote alarming, etc. areavailable to fully utilize the power and capabilities of your systems.
General Operation-Cooling
In cooling control action, the DDC controller matches primary airflow to cooling load.The DDCcontroller will automatically change over to heating control action if the supply air temperature isabove a configured/editable setpoint. When the supply air temperature is less than 10 degreesbelow this setpoint, the controller will automatically switch to cooling control action.The DDCcontroller first chooses theTracer SC -provided supply air temperature value to use for autochangeover. If this is not available, it uses the temperature provided by the optional auxiliarytemperature sensor (must be installed for inlet temperature monitoring). If this is also not available,it uses the heating/cooling mode assigned byTracer SC or the DDC controller’s service tool.

When heat is added to the primary air, the air is considered reheated. Reheat can be either local(integral to theVAV unit in the form of an electric coil or hot water coil) or remote (typically existing

wall fin radiation, convector, etc.) or any combination of local and remote.The operatingcharacteristics of the four basic types of VariTrane DDC terminal reheat are discussed.
Single-Duct: On/Off Hot Water Reheat
Three stages of on/off hot water reheat are available.Two-position water valves complete the HWreheat system and are either fully opened or fully closed.The heating minimum airflow setpointis enforced during reheat.
Stage 1 energizes when the space temperature is at or below the heating setpoint.When the zonetemperature rises above the active heating setpoint by 0.5°F (0.28°C), stage 1 is de-energized. Stage2 energizes when the space temperature is 1°F (0.56°C) or more below the active heating setpoint,and is de-energized when the space temperature is 0.5°F (0.28°C) below the active heating setpoint.Stage 3 energizes when the zone temperature is 2°F (1.11°C) or more below the active heatingsetpoint, and de-energizes when the space temperature is 1.5°F (0.83°C) below the active heatingsetpoint. When reheat is de-energized, the cooling minimum airflow setpoint is activated.
Single-Duct: Proportional Hot Water Reheat
Proportional hot water reheat uses 3-wire floating-point-actuator technology.The heatingminimum airflow setpoint is enforced during reheat.
The water valve opens as space temperature drops below the heating setpoint. A separate reheatproportional-plus-integral control loop from that controlling airflow into the room is enforced.Water valve position is dependent on the degree that the space temperature is below the activeheating setpoint and the time that the space temperature has been below the active heatingsetpoint. If not already closed, the water valve fully closes when the zone temperature rises abovethe active heating setpoint by 0.5 °F (0.28 °C). An additional on/off remote heat output is availableand energized when the proportional valve is driven 100% open and de-energized when theproportional valve reaches 50% open.When reheat is de-energized, the cooling minimum airflowsetpoint is activated. Again, these reheat devices can be either local or remote.
Single-Duct: On/Off Electric Reheat
One, two, or three stages of staged electric reheat are available.The heating minimum airflowsetpoint is enforced during reheat.
Stage 1 is energized when the space temperature falls below the active heating setpoint andminimum airflow requirements are met.When the zone temperature rises above the active heatingsetpoint by 0.5°F (0.28°C), stage 1 is de-energized. Stage 2 energizes when the space temperatureis 1°F (0.56°C) or more below the active heating setpoint, and is de-energized when the spacetemperature is 0.5°F (0.28°C) below the active heating setpoint. Stage 3 energizes when the zonetemperature is 2°F (1.11°C) or more below the active heating setpoint, and de-energizes when thespace temperature is 1.5°F (0.83°C) below the active heating setpoint.When reheat is de-energized,the cooling minimum airflow setpoint is activated.
Single-Duct: Pulse-Width Modulation of Electric Heat
One to three stages of pulse-width modulation of electric heat are available. Energizing for aportion of a three-minute time period modulates the electric heater.This allows exact loadmatching for energy efficient operation, and optimum zone temperature control.The heatingminimum airflow setpoint is enforced during reheat.
The amount of reheat supplied is dependent on both the degree that the space temperature isbelow the active heating setpoint and the time that the space temperature has been below theactive heating setpoint. If not already off, reheat de-energizes when the zone temperature risesmore than 0.5°F (0.28°C) above the heating setpoint.
The Stage 1 “on” time is proportional to the amount of reheat required. For example, when 50%of stage 1 capacity is required, reheat is on for 90 seconds and off for 90 seconds. When 75% ofstage 1 capacity is required, reheat is on for 135 seconds and off for 45 seconds. When 100% ofstage 1 capacity is required, reheat is on continuously.
VAV-PRC011-EN 79
DDC Controls
Stage 2 uses the same “on” time logic as stage 1 listed above, except stage 1 is always energized.For example, when 75% of unit capacity is required, stage 1 is energized continuously, and stage2 is on for 90 seconds and off for 90 seconds. When reheat is de-energized, the cooling minimumairflow setpoint is activated. Caution: Care should be taken when sizing electric heaters. Leavingair temperatures (LAT) should not exceed 100°–110°F, with 95°F being the optimal for zonetemperature and comfort control. At elevated LATs, room stratification may result in uneven airdistribution and zone temperature complaints.To prevent stratification, the warm air temperatureshould not be more than 20°F (6.7°C) above zone air temperature. (See Diffuser, “D”, section foradditional application details)
Ventilation Control
Ventilation control enhances the usability ofTrane DDC controllers in more select applications thatrequire measurement of outside air (ventilation). Ventilation control is designed for use withconstant volume single-ductVAV units which modulate the primary damper and associated reheatto maintain an average constant discharge air temperature.The reheat is modulated to providedischarge air temperature consistent with AHU supply air temperature (typically 50º–60ºF).This iscritical to ensure that ASHRAE Standard 62 Ventilation standards are attained, consistentlymaintained, and monitored. When connected to aTracer™ building automation control system,trend logging, remote alarming, etc. is available. In fact, theTraneTracer Control System canprovide unmatched “peace of mind” by calling/paging the appropriate person(s) when specificalarms occur.
FlowTracking Control
This enhanced VAV DDC controller feature allows twoTrane VV550 controllers to coordinatemodulation simultaneously.This allows a specific CFM offset to be maintained.The CFM offsetprovides pressurization control of an occupied space, while maintaining the comfort and energysavings of a VAV system. A flow tracking system in a given zone consists of a standard SpaceComfort Control VAV (see B)unit plus a single-duct, cooling-only, exhaust VAV unit (see C). As thesupplyVAV unit modulates the supply airflow through the air valve to maintain space comfort, theexhaust box modulates a similar amount to maintain the required CFM differential.This is a simple,reliable means of pressurization control, which meets the requirements of the majority of zonepressurization control applications.Typical applications include:
• School and University laboratories
• Industrial laboratories
• Hospital operating rooms
• Hospital patient rooms
• Research and Development facilities
• And many more…
The CFM offset is assured and can be monitored and documented when connected to aTraneTracer BuildingAutomation System. FlowTracking Control is designed to meet most pressurizationcontrol projects. If an application calls for pressure control other than flow tracking, contact yourlocalTrane Sales Office for technical support.

Factory Commissioned Quality – AllTrane DDC VAV controllers are factory-commissioned.Thismeans that the DDC boards are powered and run-tested with your specific sequence parameters.They are connected to a communication link to make sure that information and diagnostic datafunction properly. Before any VariTrane VAV unit ships they must pass a rigorous quality controlprocedure.You can be assured that aTrane VAV unit withTrane DDC VAV controls will work rightout of the crate.
Zone sensor air balance – When applied to aTrane zone sensor with thumbwheel and on/cancelbuttons, a balancing contractor can drive the primary air valve to maximum or minimum airflowfrom the sensor to determine the point of calibration to be used (maximum will result in optimumperformance).The flow reading can then be calibrated from the sensor, without the use ofadditional service tools. (Non-LCD versions)
Tenant-Finish Heat Mode – In some office projects, the building is being constructed as tenants arebeing identified.Tenant-finish heat mode is designed for applications when a given floor has notbeen occupied.The main AHU system is used for heat and because the internal furnishings are notcomplete, the sensors have not been installed. In this case, the primary valve drives open usingthe heat of the main AHU to keep plumbing lines from freezing. When available, the operation ofthe VAV unit fan (series or parallel) remains unaffected.
Controller Flexibility
• 24VAC binary input that can be configured as a generic input or as occupancy input.When theDDC controller is operating withTracer SC, the status of the input is provided toTracer for itsaction. In stand-alone operation and when configured for an occupancy input, the input willcontrol occupancy status of the DDC controller.
• Auxiliary temperature analog input configured for an auxiliary temperature sensor. Whensensor is mounted in the supply air duct, the value of the input is used as status-only byTracerSC ifTracer SC is providing a supply air temperature to the DDC controller. Otherwise, the inputwill be used for determining heating/cooling control action of theVAV unit.When the auxiliarytemperature sensor is located in the discharge of the unit, and attached to aTrane SC BAS,additional test sequencing and reporting is available to maximizeVAV system capabilities andsimplify system commissioning.
• Dual-duct support with two DDC controllers. One DDC controller controls the cooling air valveand the other controller controls the heating air valve. With constant-volume sequences, thedischarge air volume is held constant by controlling discharge air volume with the heatingController.
• LonMark certified performance ensures that aTrane VAV with controller will provide state-of-the-art, consistent open communication protocol for integration with the industry’s latest (Non-Trane) building automation control systems, including Johnson Control, Andover, Siemans,Honeywell, etc.

• CO2 demand controlled ventilation enables a HVAC system to adjust ventilation flow based oncritical zone, average CO2 of specified zones, etc.Trane demand controlled ventilationstrategies are pre-defined for simplified application and can be easily customized to meet theneeds of a specific system.
Trane DDC VAV Controller Logic
Control Logic
Direct Digital Control (DDC) controllers are today’s industry standard. DDC controllers sharesystem-level data to optimize system performance (including changing ventilation requirements,system static pressures, supply air temperatures, etc.). Variables available via a simple twisted-shielded wire pair include occupied/unoccupied status, minimum and maximum airflow setpoints,zone temperature and temperature setpoints, air valve position, airflow cfm, fan status (on or off),fan operation mode (parallel or series), reheat status (on or off), VAV unit type, air valve size,temperature correction offsets, flow correction values, ventilation fraction, etc.
With the advent of LonMark open protocol, the most reliable VAV controller is now available forANY system. Gone are the days of being locked into a single supplier.Trane DDC controllersprovideTrane-designed solid-state electronics intended specifically forVAV applications including:
4. SpaceTemperature Control
5. Ventilation Flow Control (100% outside air applications)
6. FlowTracking Space Pressurization Control (New feature)
Note: Flow sensor DP (in. wg) is measured at the flow ring to aid in system balancing and commissioning. See “Valve/Controller Airflow Guidelines” in each section for unit performance.
SpaceTemperature Control
Space temperature control applications are whereTrane emerged as an industry leader in qualityand reliability.This did not occur overnight and has continued to improve as our controller andcontrol logic has improved over time. STC employs controller logic designed to modulate thesupply airstream and associated reheat (either local or remote) to exactly match the loadrequirements of the space.
Additionally, minimum and maximum airflow and specific controller sequence requirements arepre-programmed to ensure that appropriate ventilation standards are consistently maintained.When connected to aTraneTracer SC control system, trend logging, remote alarming, etc. areavailable to fully utilize the power and capabilities of your systems.

DDC Controls
General Operation-Cooling
In cooling control action, the DDC controller matches primary airflow to cooling load.The DDCcontroller will automatically change over to heating control action if the supply air temperature isabove a configured/editable setpoint. When the supply air temperature is less than 10 degreesbelow this setpoint, the controller will automatically switch to cooling control action.The DDCcontroller first chooses theTracer SC -provided supply air temperature value to use for autochangeover. If this is not available, it uses the temperature provided by the optional auxiliarytemperature sensor (must be installed for inlet temperature monitoring). If this is also not available,it uses the heating/cooling mode assigned byTracer SC or the DDC controller’s service tool.
General Operation-Reheat
In heating control action, the DDC controller matches primary airflow to heating load.The DDCcontroller will automatically change over to heating control action if the supply air temperature isabove a configured/editable setpoint. When the supply air temperature is less than 10 degreesbelow this setpoint, the controller will automatically switch to cooling control action. The DDCcontroller first chooses theTracer SC -provided supply air temperature value to use for autochangeover. If this is not available, it uses the temperature provided by the optional auxiliarytemperature sensor (must be installed for inlet temperature monitoring). If this is also not available,it uses the heating/cooling mode assigned byTracer SC or the DDC controller’s service tool.
When heat is added to the primary air, the air is considered reheated. Reheat can be either local(integral to theVAV unit in the form of an electric coil or hot water coil) or remote (typically existingwall fin radiation, convector, etc.) or any combination of local and remote.The operatingcharacteristics of the four basic types of VariTrane DDC terminal reheat are discussed.
Single-Duct: On/Off Hot Water Reheat
Three stages of on/off hot water reheat are available.Two-position water valves complete the HWreheat system and are either fully opened or fully closed.The heating minimum airflow setpointis enforced during reheat.
Stage 1 energizes when the space temperature is at or below the heating setpoint.When the zonetemperature rises above the active heating setpoint by 0.5°F (0.28°C), stage 1 is de-energized. Stage2 energizes when the space temperature is 1°F (0.56°C) or more below the active heating setpoint,and is de-energized when the space temperature is 0.5°F (0.28°C) below the active heating setpoint.Stage 3 energizes when the zone temperature is 2°F (1.11°C) or more below the active heatingsetpoint, and de-energizes when the space temperature is 1.5°F (0.83°C) below the active heatingsetpoint. When reheat is de-energized, the cooling minimum airflow setpoint is activated.
Single-Duct: Proportional Hot Water Reheat
Proportional hot water reheat uses 3-wire floating-point-actuator technology.The heatingminimum airflow setpoint is enforced during reheat.
The water valve opens as space temperature drops below the heating setpoint. A separate reheatproportional-plus-integral control loop from that controlling airflow into the room is enforced.Water valve position is dependent on the degree that the space temperature is below the activeheating setpoint and the time that the space temperature has been below the active heatingsetpoint. If not already closed, the water valve fully closes when the zone temperature rises abovethe active heating setpoint by 0.5 °F (0.28 °C). An additional on/off remote heat output is availableand energized when the proportional valve is driven 100% open and de-energized when theproportional valve reaches 50% open.When reheat is de-energized, the cooling minimum airflowsetpoint is activated. Again, these reheat devices can be either local or remote.
Single-Duct: On/Off Electric Reheat
One, two, or three stages of staged electric reheat are available.The heating minimum airflowsetpoint is enforced during reheat.
86 VAV-PRC011-EN
DDC Controls
Stage 1 is energized when the space temperature falls below the active heating setpoint andminimum airflow requirements are met.When the zone temperature rises above the active heatingsetpoint by 0.5°F (0.28°C), stage 1 is de-energized. Stage 2 energizes when the space temperatureis 1°F (0.56°C) or more below the active heating setpoint, and is de-energized when the spacetemperature is 0.5°F (0.28°C) below the active heating setpoint. Stage 3 energizes when the zonetemperature is 2°F (1.11°C) or more below the active heating setpoint, and de-energizes when thespace temperature is 1.5°F (0.83°C) below the active heating setpoint.When reheat is de-energized,the cooling minimum airflow setpoint is activated.
Single-Duct: Pulse-Width Modulation of Electric Heat
One to three stages of pulse-width modulation of electric heat are available. Energizing for aportion of a three-minute time period modulates the electric heater.This allows exact loadmatching for energy efficient operation, and optimum zone temperature control.The heatingminimum airflow setpoint is enforced during reheat.
The amount of reheat supplied is dependent on both the degree that the space temperature isbelow the active heating setpoint and the time that the space temperature has been below theactive heating setpoint. If not already off, reheat de-energizes when the zone temperature risesmore than 0.5°F (0.28°C) above the heating setpoint.
The Stage 1 “on” time is proportional to the amount of reheat required. For example, when 50%of stage 1 capacity is required, reheat is on for 90 seconds and off for 90 seconds. When 75% ofstage 1 capacity is required, reheat is on for 135 seconds and off for 45 seconds. When 100% ofstage 1 capacity is required, reheat is on continuously.
Stage 2 uses the same “on” time logic as stage 1 listed above, except stage 1 is always energized.For example, when 75% of unit capacity is required, stage 1 is energized continuously, and stage2 is on for 90 seconds and off for 90 seconds. When reheat is de-energized, the cooling minimumairflow setpoint is activated. Caution: Care should be taken when sizing electric heaters. Leavingair temperatures (LAT) should not exceed 100°–110°F, with 95°F being the optimal for zonetemperature and comfort control. At elevated LATs, room stratification may result in uneven airdistribution and zone temperature complaints.To prevent stratification, the warm air temperatureshould not be more than 20°F (6.7°C) above zone air temperature. (See Diffuser, “D”, section foradditional application details)
Ventilation Control
Ventilation control enhances the usability ofTrane DDC controllers in more select applications thatrequire measurement of outside air (ventilation). Ventilation control is designed for use withconstant volume single-ductVAV units which modulate the primary damper and associated reheatto maintain an average constant discharge air temperature.The reheat is modulated to providedischarge air temperature consistent with AHU supply air temperature (typically 50º–60ºF).This iscritical to ensure that ASHRAE Standard 62 Ventilation standards are attained, consistentlymaintained, and monitored. When connected to aTrane Building Automation System controlsystem, trend logging, remote alarming, etc. is available. In fact, theTraneTracer Control Systemcan provide unmatched“peace of mind” by calling/paging the appropriate person(s) when specificalarms occur.
FlowTracking Control
This enhanced VAV DDC controller feature allows twoTrane VV550 controllers to coordinatemodulation simultaneously.This allows a specific CFM offset to be maintained.The CFM offsetprovides pressurization control of an occupied space, while maintaining the comfort and energysavings of a VAV system. A flow tracking system in a given zone consists of a standard SpaceComfort Control VAV (see B)unit plus a single-duct, cooling-only, exhaust VAV unit (see C). As thesupplyVAV unit modulates the supply airflow through the air valve to maintain space comfort, theexhaust box modulates a similar amount to maintain the required CFM differential.This is a simple,reliable means of pressurization control, which meets the requirements of the majority of zonepressurization control applications.Typical applications include:
VAV-PRC011-EN 87
DDC Controls
• School and University laboratories
• Industrial laboratories
• Hospital operating rooms
• Hospital patient rooms
• Research and Development facilities
• And many more…
The CFM offset is assured and can be monitored and documented when connected to aTraneTracer BuildingAutomation System. FlowTracking Control is designed to meet most pressurizationcontrol projects. If an application calls for pressure control other than flow tracking, contact yourlocalTrane Sales Office for technical support.

Quantity of WCIs per Network
EachTrane wireless network can have a total of 31WCIs (30 memberWCIs plus 1 coordinatorWCI).Each network requires one WCI to function as network coordinator.
Quantity of Networks perTracer SC
ATracer SC can support up to 8 wireless networks.
Automatic Network Formation
When a WCI is connected to aTracer SC, it is auto-assigned as the coordinator.To enable thecoordinator,Tracer SC must be configured for wireless communication.The coordinator WCIopens the network to allow allWCIs having matching addresses to automatically join the network.
If noTracer SC is present, a centrally locatedWCI must be designated to act as the coordinator.Youcan manually set the coordinator WCI so all WCIs having matching addresses automatically jointhe network.
Wireless Zone Sensors
The WCI also communicates withTrane wireless zone sensors, eliminating the need for analogreceivers.
Wired Zone Sensors
Systems using Wireless Comm can also use wired zone sensors.
WCI controller
TheTrane® Wireless Comm Interface (WCI) enables wirelesscommunication between system controls, unit controls, andwireless sensors for the new generation ofTrane controlproducts.The WCI replaces the need for communication wirein all system applications.

The wall- and duct-mounted carbon dioxide (CO2) sensors are designed for use withTrane DDC/UCM control systems. Installation is made simple by attachment directly to the DDC/ UCMcontroller.This allows the existing communication link to be used to send CO2 data to the higher-levelTrane control system.
Wall-mounted sensors can monitor individual zones, and the duct-mounted sensor is ideal formonitoring return air of a given unit. Long-term stability and reliability are assured with advancedsilicon based Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) technology.
When connected to a building automation system with the appropriate ventilation equipment, theTrane CO2 sensors measure and record carbon dioxide in parts-per-million (ppm) in occupiedbuilding spaces.These carbon dioxide measurements are typically used to identify under-ventilated building zones and to override outdoor airflow beyond design ventilation rates if the CO2exceeds acceptable levels.

PC04 – VCCF and VCWF - Single-Duct Terminal Units
With an increase in room temperature, the thermostat output pressure is increased. This signal is input for the volume regulator, whichalso receives inputs from the high- and low-pressure sides of the flow ring. The volume regulator outputs a signal compensated forchanging duct pressure to the valve actuator which opens the damper and increases primary cooling flow to the space. With adecrease in room temperature, the opposite action occurs. Minimum and maximum primary airflow settings are maintained by thevolume regulator. When the system is designed with reheat, heating stages are energized at the appropriate pressure settings.
With an increase in room temperature, the thermostat output pressure is increased and the actuator opens to increase primarycooling airflow to the space. With a decrease in room temperature, the opposite action occurs.

With an increase in room temperature, the thermostat output pressure is decreased. This signal is input for the volume regulator, which alsoreceives the inputs from the high- and low-pressure sides of the flow ring. The volume regulator outputs a signal compensated for changingduct pressure to the valve actuator which opens the damper and increases primary cooling flow to the space. With a decrease in roomtemperature, the opposite action occurs. Minimum and maximum primary airflow settings are maintained by the volume regulator. When thesystem is designed with reheat, heating stages are energized at the appropriate pressure settings.

With a decrease in room temperature, the thermostat output pressure is decreased. This signal is input to the volume regulator, which alsoreceives inputs from the high- and low-pressure sides of the flow ring. The volume regulator outputs a signal compensated for changing ductpressure to the valve actuator, which closes the damper and decreases primary cooling flow to the space. With a further decrease in roomtemperature, the auxiliary limit will override the thermostat signal, which is followed by the reheat being energized. Once the reheat has beenenergized, the volume regulator will send a signal to the actuator to open to its secondary minimum. With an increase in temperature, theopposite action occurs. Minimum and maximum airflow settings are maintained by the volume regulator. Heating stages are energized at theappropriate pressure settings.

With an increase in room temperature, the thermostat output pressure is increased. This signal is input to the volume regulators,which also receives the inputs from the high- and low-pressure from the flow ring. The cooling volume regulator outputs a signalcompensated for changing duct pressure to the valve actuator, which opens the damper and increases primary cooling airflow to thespace. The heating valve is at a minimum flow. With a decrease in room temperature, the heating valve modulates in response tosignals from the heating pneumatic volume regulator, while maintaining constant volume at the discharge. The heating minimumand maximum settings and the constant volume settings are maintained by the volume regulators.

Direct Digital Controller
The microprocessor-based terminal unit controller provides accurate, pressure-independentcontrol through the use of a proportional integral control algorithm and direct digital controltechnology.The UCM, monitors zone temperature setpoints, zone temperature, the rate oftemperature change, and valve airflow.With the addition of optional sensors, room occupancy orsupply duct air temperature can be monitored.The controller is provided in an enclosure with7/8” (22 mm) knockouts for remote control wiring. ATrane DDC zone sensor is required.
DDC Actuator
Trane 3-wire, 24-VAC, floating-point quarter turn control actuator with linkage release button.Actuator has a constant drive rate independent of load, a rated torque of 35 in-lb, a 90-second drivetime, and is non-spring return.Travel is terminated by end stops at fully opened and closedpositions. An integral magnetic clutch eliminates motor stall.
DDC Actuator - Belimo
LMB24-3-TTN 3-wire, 24VAC/DC, floating-point, quarter turn actuator with linkage release button.Actuator has a constant drive rate independent of load, a rated torque of 45 in-lb, a 95 second drivetime, and is non-spring return.Travel is terminated by end stops at fully-opened and -closedpositions. Internal electronic control prevents motor stall when motor reaches end stops.
DDC Zone Sensor
The UCM controller measures zone temperature through a sensing element located in the zonesensor. Other zone sensor options may include an externally-adjustable setpoint, communicationsjack for use with a portable service tool, and an override button to change the individual controllerfrom unoccupied to occupied mode.The override button has a cancel feature that will return thesystem to unoccupied. Wired zone sensors utilize a thermistor to vary the voltage output inresponse to changes in the zone temperature.Wiring to the UCM controller must be 18 to 22 awg.twisted pair wiring.The setpoint adjustment range is 50–88ºF (10–31°C) Depending upon thefeatures available in the model of sensor selected, the zone sensor may require from a 2-wire toa 7-wire connection. Wireless zone sensors report the same zone information as wired zonesensors, but do so using radio transmitter technology. No wiring from the zone sensor to the UCMcontroller is necessary.
Digital Display Zone Sensor with Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
The direct digital zone sensor contains a sensing element which sends a signal to the UCM.A LiquidCrystal Display (LCD) indicates setpoint, or space temperature. Sensor buttons allow setpointadjust, and allow space temperature readings to be turned on or off.The digital display zone sensor

Application Considerations
VAV System
There are two primary types of VAV systems—single-duct and dual-duct.
Single-Duct Systems
Single-duct systems include one supply fan and a single supply duct, which is attached to eachzone.The supply fan delivers cooled air to theVAV zones in variable volumes, depending upon thecooling requirements.The supply fan is usually designed to modulate airflow delivered to theVAVzones.
Many VAV zones require heating as well as cooling.The supply air-handling unit provides eitherno heat (cooling only), morning warm-up heat or occupied (changeover) heat. In addition, heat maybe provided at any individual VAV zone (within the zone or within the VAV terminal) by reheatingcool air provided by the central air handler.
No Heat
Central Cooling Only—In some systems, the central air handler provides only cooling andventilation during zone occupied periods.The supply air is maintained at a constant temperatureand the supply airflow is modulated to match the VAV airflow rate with the zone coolingrequirements.
Central Heat
Central Heat for Morning Warm-up—Many buildings cool down during the night.To be at acomfortable temperature in the morning when the building is again occupied, heat must be addedto the spaces. Heat provided by the central air handler for morning warm-up is supplied at constantair volume to the zones, prior to the time of occupancy. During the morning warm-up period, theVAV terminal units must open to allow heated air to flow into the zones. In most instances very littleadditional heat is needed once the building is occupied.
Central Occupied Heating-Changeover—Some buildings use the same air handler to provideboth occupied cooling and occupied heating.This is commonly referred to as a changeover system.The system changes between heating and cooling depending on the need of the zones on thesystem. In a changeover system, the operation of the VAV terminal units must also change over,opening to provide heat in the heating mode and opening to provide cooling in the cooling mode.

Application Considerations
Trane's main product in this type of application is calledVariTrac™.VariTrane products can also beused in these systems. (These types of systems are beyond the scope of this manual and arediscussed in detail in the VariTrac II Manual.
Terminal Heat
Remote Heat—In some zones of a single-ductVAV system, perimeter heating equipment, remotefrom the terminal unit, is used to add heat to the zone when the cooling load is lower than theminimum cooling capacity of the VAV terminal unit. Heat is added directly to the zone while coolsupply air continues to enter the zone at a minimum rate for zone ventilation.
Terminal Reheat—In some zones of a single-ductVAV system, a minimum flow of cool supply airis reheated at the terminal unit before entering the zone.Terminal reheat can be provided byelectrical resistance heaters or by hot water coils.
Parallel Fan-Powered Heat—In some zones of a single-duct VAV system, cool supply air atminimum flow is mixed with warm plenum air before entering the zone at a constant flow rate. Afan in the terminal unit, in parallel with the central fan, draws air from the plenum whenever thezone requires heat.
Series Fan-Powered Heat—In some zones of a single-duct VAV system, the airflow to the zoneis held constant, during both heating and cooling, by a terminal unit fan that is in series with thecentral fan.The terminal unit fan runs continuously. When the zone requires heat, cool supply airat minimum flow is mixed with warm, return plenum air before entering the zone.
Dual-Duct Systems
Dual-duct systems have either one or two supply fans and two duct systems. One duct systemcarries heated air and the other duct system carries cooled air. Heated air and cooled air aremodulated and/or mixed at each zone in the proper proportions to control zone temperature.Terminal reheat is not required in a dual-duct system.

VariTrane VAVTerminal Units
The function of the VariTrane terminal unit in a VAV control zone is to vary the volumetric airflowrate to the zone. VariTrane units are available with either microprocessor-based DDC controls orpneumatic or analog electronic controls. Factory-installed controls are available with all types ofterminal units.
VAVTerminal UnitTypes
Single-Duct
Single-duct terminal units control the volumetric flow of supply air to the space to maintain thezone temperature at setpoint.These units are generally applied in cooling-only VAV zones thatrequire no heat during occupied hours. If local zone heat is necessary it can be provided eitherremotely (for example, perimeter heat) or by terminal reheat (either electric or hot water coils).
Dual-Duct
Dual-duct terminal units are used in a special type of air distribution system where the main systemhas both warm air and cold air separately ducted to each terminal unit.The flow of both warm airand cool air is modulated, delivering air to theVAV zone at variable air volumes as well as variabletemperatures. Since full capacity occupied heating is always available, control of additional localheat is not provided.

Application Considerations
Fan-Pressure Optimization
WithTrane's Integrated Comfort System, the information fromVAV terminal units can be used forother energy-saving strategies. Fan-pressure optimization is the concept of reducing the supply fanenergy usage based on the position of the terminal unit dampers.
The control system allows this scenario.The system polls the VAV units for the damper positionon each unit.The supply fan is modulated until the most wide-open damper is between 85% and95% open.The correct airflow is still being sent to the zones since the controls of theVAV units arepressure-independent, and the fan modulates to an optimal speed and duct static pressure whichresults in fan energy savings.
Ventilation Reset
The Ventilation Reset control strategy enables a building ventilation system to bring in anappropriate amount of outdoor air per ASHRAE Standard 62.1.The basis for the strategy ismeasuring airflow at each zone, calculating current system ventilation efficiency using themultiple-zone system equations of the standard, and communicating a new outdoor airflowsetpoint to the air handler.
This strategy continually monitors the zone ventilation needs and system outdoor air intake flow,minimizing the amount of ventilation air and increasing the energy efficiency of the system. Thisinsures that the right amount of air is brought in at all times and that proper ventilation can bedocumented.Trane has integrated this control ability into the VAV controls, air-handler controls,and building controls.
For more detailed information on these energy-saving strategies, please refer to the “AdditionalReferences” section at the end of this chapter for appropriate material.

Application Considerations
ControlTypes
VAV terminal units are available with many different options.These options fall into three maincategories of controls: direct digital (DDC), pneumatic, and analog electronic. All of these controltypes can be used to perform the same basic unit control functions, yet differences exist in accuracyof performance, versatility, installed cost, operating cost, and maintenance cost.
Direct Digital Control (DDC) Systems
Benefits:
Performance—DDC controls offer PI control capability. A PI control scheme is the most accurateand repeatable control scheme available in the VAV terminal unit industry.
Versatility—DDC controls accepts software commands to determine how its outputs will becontrolled. When a control sequence must be modified, making changes to the softwareinstructions is easier and quicker than changing hardware.
Operating and Maintenance Costs—DDC controls can be networked together to provide system-control strategies for energy savings. Multiple controllers can be easily monitored and adjustedfrom a remote location. DDC controls also have system and individual diagnostic capability.
Disadvantages:
Versatility—The communications protocol between controllers will be different from one controllermanufacturer to another.
Installed Cost—DDC controls are the most expensive of the three control types.
Operating and Maintenance Costs—Building personnel must be trained to operate and maintainthe system.
Pneumatic Control Systems
Pneumatic control systems use compressed air through simple mechanical control devices,such as diaphragms, springs, and levers to change an output in response to a change in amonitored variable. With VAV terminal units, the output is typically a primary airflow and themonitored variable is zone temperature.
Benefits:
Performance—Pneumatic controls are a proven technology that is effective and has a long lifecycle.
Installed Cost—When a source of compressed air exists at the facility, pneumatics generally havea lower installed cost than other types of controls when only a basic functionality is required.
Operating and Maintenance Costs—Pneumatics are still the most familiar control technology tomany building designers and maintenance people.
Direct digital control (DDC) systems becameavailable as advances in computer technology madesmall microprocessors available and affordable.Much of the hardware in DDC systems is similar toanalog electronic systems.The primary difference isthat DDC controllers allow systemintegration, remotemonitoring, and adjustment.The microprocessor isprogrammed using software that gives the controllera higher level of capability than either the pneumaticor analog electronic options.
VAV-PRC011-EN 131
Application Considerations
Large Installed Base—Pneumatic systems are very common in existing buildings.This eliminatesthe need to purchase the most expensive piece of equipment in a pneumatic control system—thecontrol air compressor. Extensions to existing pneumatic systems are generally very simple andextremely cost-effective.
Disadvantages:
Performance—Pneumatic controls provide proportional-only control for VAV terminal unitsystems.This control scheme is less accurate than the more advanced control schemes. Impropercalibration of pneumatic controls leads to poor energy utilization.
Versatility—A central pneumatic control system, where each of the control zones can be monitoredand adjusted from a remote location, is extremely costly to configure and to modify.
Operating and Maintenance Costs—Pneumatics easily drift and require constant upkeep andscheduled maintenance. Diagnostic capability for pneumatics is not available. A main compressorwhich is not maintained and becomes contaminated with oil or water can pump thosecontaminants into the compressed-air-distribution system.This may require costly cleaning of thesystem and a possible replacement of system components.
DDC Controls Basic Information
DDC controls have become the industry standard for VAV terminal unit control systems. DDCsystems use electronic field devices such as a flow transducer, a primary air modulating damper,and an electronic thermostat.These field devices report software instructions of how the outputsare positioned in relation to the inputs to a controller.The VariTrane™ system uses a primary airvalve and flow transducer for both DDC systems and analog electronic systems. However, the DDCzone sensor is different from the analog electronic thermostat.
DDC controls provide much flexibility and considerable diagnostic capability. DDC controllers canbe connected together to form a network of controllers. Once the controllers are networked, theycan be monitored for proper operation from a remote location. Commands and overrides can besent for groups of controllers at one time to make system-wide changes. Commands and overridescan be sent to individual units to allow problem diagnosis, temporary shutdown, startup schedulesor other specialized changes.When integrated into a building management system, the operationof the VAV terminal unit system can be modified to do such things, as coincide with occupancyschedules and reduce energy charges.
DDC control ofVAV terminal units is a key element in providing intelligent and responsive buildingmanagement. Precision control, flexible comfort, and after hours access are all available with theVariTrane™ DDC control system for VAV terminal units.
Key features of the system include:
• An advanced unit controller
• Flexible system design
• User-friendly interaction
Pneumatic Controls Basic Information
Pneumatic controls modulate air pressure of a controller to maintain setpoint. For VAV systems,there are two primary types of pneumatic controllers—the room thermostat and the pneumaticvolume regulator (PVR).
RoomThermostats
The most visible controller to the customer is the room thermostat. Pneumatic room thermostatscan be classified by two characteristics: the tubing connection(s) to the thermostat and the actionof the thermostat output in response to a change in the input.
Room thermostats are available in models that require a one-pipe or a two-pipe configuration.Thename is derived from the number of tubes that must run to the thermostat location.The difference
132 VAV-PRC011-EN
Application Considerations
is really in the construction of the thermostats.The two-pipe thermostats have a constant pressuresupply connected via an air tube to the thermostat supply air port.The supply air travels throughthe thermostat’s relays, levers, diaphragm, and bleed port to produce an output.The output lineis connected to the output port of the thermostat and extends to the controlled device.The one-pipe thermostat has, as its name suggests, only one air line connection.The thermostat works byopening and closing an air bleed valve.This will either decrease or increase the pressure on thecontrolled device, which is connected to the same line that runs to the thermostat.
Room thermostats also can be classified by their reaction to a change in temperature. Roomthermostats classified this way are denoted as either direct-acting or reverse-acting. Direct-actingthermostats will increase their output pressure as the temperature the thermostat measuresincreases.
On the contrary, reverse-acting thermostats will decrease their output pressure as the temperaturethe thermostat measures increases.
Pneumatic Volume Regulators
These controllers accept the room thermostat signal and modulate theVAV terminal unit primaryair damper.The primary air damper is controlled for an airflow setpoint that is determined by theroom thermostat.The thermostat increases the PVR’s airflow setting when the temperature in thespace is warm. On the other hand, the thermostat decreases the PVR’s airflow setting when thetemperature in the space is cold.
Currently, VariTrane offers two models of pneumatic volume regulators in its controls offering—the 3011 regulator (used in most applications) and the 3501 model (used in dual-duct constant-volume applications).The primary difference is the 3501 PVR’s ability to change the velocitypressure linearly with a change in thermostat pressure, which results in improved stability at lowflows. In contrast, the 3011 PVR resets the velocity pressure with a change in thermostat pressure.
Reset Control of Minimum and Maximum Flow—The 3011 PVR and 3501 use fixed reset control ofminimum and maximum flow settings.The primary benefit of fixed reset in a pneumatic volumeregulator is stable flow control without excessive damper movement.
Fixed Reset—A fixed reset controller operates over a thermostat signal change of 5 psi betweenminimum and maximum flow, regardless of the differential pressure flow sensor signal.Thethermostat is usually set for a gain of 2.5; i.e. it produces a 2.5 psi output change per degree of spacetemperature change.This control strategy provides stable flow control with the primary air valvethrottling between minimum and maximum flow over a 2°F space temperature change.
Example 1: Air valve with a 6" inlet, Pneumatic thermostat gain = 2.5 psi/degree:
Minimum Flow=0 cfm, 0.0 in. wg flow signal
Maximum Flow=680 cfm, 2.0 in. wg flow signal
Figure 13. Direct-acting thermostat response (L) and direct-acting thermostat response (R)
VAV-PRC011-EN 133
Application Considerations
2.0 in. wg signal range
The damper will modulate from zero to maximum position over a 2°F temperature change.
Bleed Port to Atmosphere—Bleeding air to the atmosphere is a normal operation for a volumeregulator.The 3011 volume regulator addresses this function with a dedicated bleed port.When airis bled through the flow sensor, the differential pressure signal from the sensor is affected. As aresult, the flow sensor signal can be radically altered if the volume regulator is bleeding air, andmay cause excessive damper movement.
Calibration—The minimum and maximum settings are independent of each other and need to beset only once during calibration.
Signal Configuration Flexibility—Both can be configured to work with both normally-open andnormally-closed pneumatic air valves, and both direct-acting and reverse-acting thermostats.
Pneumatic Volume Regulators
Flow Measurement and Control
The differential pressure signal output of the flow ring provides the terminal unit controller ameasurement of the primary airflow through the inlet.The terminal unit controller then opens orcloses the inlet damper to maintain the controller airflow setpoint
Flow Measurement
Most VAV terminal units contain a differential pressure airflow measurement device, mounted atthe primary air inlet, to provide a signal to the terminal unit controller. Numerous names exist forthe differential pressure measurement device—flow sensor, flow bar, flow ring.The differentialpressure measured at the inlet varies according to the volumetric flow rate of primary air enteringthe inlet.
The total pressure and the static pressure are measurable quantities.The flow measurementdevice in aVAV terminal unit is designed to measure velocity pressure. Most flow sensors consistof a hollow piece of tubing with orifices in it.TheVariTrane air valve contains a flow ring as its flow
One of the most important characteristics of aVAV terminal unit isits ability to accurately sense and control airflow.The VariTraneterminal unit was developed with exactly that goal in mind.Thepatented, multiple-point, averaging flow ring measures thevelocity of the air at the unit primary air inlet.
134 VAV-PRC011-EN
Application Considerations
measuring device.The flow ring is two round coils of tubing. Evenly spaced orifices in the upstreamcoil are the high-pressure taps that average the total pressure of air flowing through the air valve.The orifices in the downstream ring are low-pressure taps that average the air pressure in the wakeof flow around the tube. By definition, the measurement of static pressure is to occur at a pointperpendicular to the airflow.The low-pressure taps on theVariTrane flow ring measure a pressurethat is parallel to the direction of flow but in the opposite direction of the flow.This“wake pressure”that the downstream ring measures is lower than the actual duct static pressure.The differencebetween the “wake pressure” and the static pressure can be accounted for so that the aboverelationship between flow and differential pressure remain valid.The difference also helps createa larger pressure differential than the velocity pressure. Since the pressures being measured inVAVterminal box applications are small, this larger differential allows transducers and controllers tomeasure and control at lower flow settings than would otherwise be possible.
The average velocity of air traveling through the inlet is expressed in the equation:
Where:
Often, the density is assumed to be a constant for dry air at standard conditions (68°F (20°C)) andsea level pressure of 14.7 psi (101.4 kPa)).These conditions yield the following commonly usedequation:
The velocity pressure is defined as the difference between the total pressure in the duct and thestatic pressure in the duct:
VP =TP - SP (All units are expressed in inches of water)
The amount of air traveling through the inlet is related to the area of the inlet and the velocity ofthe air:
AIRFLOW = AREA (square feet) x AVERAGE VELOCITY (feet per minute)
Accuracy
The multiple, evenly spaced orifices in the flow ring of the VariTrane terminal unit provide qualitymeasurement accuracy even if ductwork turns or variations are present before the unit inlet. Forthe most accurate readings, a minimum of 1½ diameters, and preferably 3 diameters, of straight-run ductwork is recommended prior to the inlet connection.The straight-run ductwork should beof the same diameter as the air valve inlet connection. If these recommendations are followed, andthe air density effects mentioned below are addressed, the flow ring will measure primary airflowwithin ±5% of unit nominal airflow.
FPM = Velocity of air in feet per minute

Application Considerations
Air Density Effects
Changes in air density due to the conditions listed below sometimes create situations where thestandard flow sensing calibration parameters must be modified.These factors must be accountedfor to achieve accuracy with the flow sensing ring. Designers, installers, and air balancers shouldbe aware of these factors and know of the necessary adjustments to correct for them.
Elevation
At high elevations the air is less dense.Therefore, when measuring the same differential pressureat elevation versus sea level the actual flow will be greater at elevation than it would be at sea level.To calculate the density at an elevation other than standard conditions (most manufacturers choosesea level as the point for their standard conditions), you must set up a ratio between the densityand differential pressure at standard conditions and the density and differential pressure at the newelevation.
Since the data from the manufacturer is published at standard conditions, this equation should besolved for the differential pressure at standard conditions and the other quantities substituted todetermine the ratio for the differential pressure measured at the new conditions.
Duct Pressure and AirTemperature Variations
While changes in these factors certainly affect the density of air, most operating parameters whichVAV systems need keep these effects very small.The impact on accuracy due to these changes isless than one half of one percent except in very extreme conditions (extreme conditions are definedas those systems with static pressures greater than 5 in. wg (1245 Pa) and primary air temperaturesgreater than 100°F (37.8°C)). Since those types of systems occur so infrequently, we assume theeffects of duct pressure and air temperature variations to be negligible.
Linearity
With the increase in DDC controls over pneumatic controls, the issue of linearity is not as great asit once was.The important aspect of flow measurement versus valve position is the accuracy ofthe controller in determining and controlling the flow. Our units are tested for linearity and thatposition versus airflow curve is downloaded and commissioned in the factory to insure propercontrol of the unit.

Figure 15. Hot water coil (L) & hot water valves (R)
136 VAV-PRC011-EN
Application Considerations
Hot water heating coils are generally applied on VAV terminal units as reheat devices. Whenapplying these coils it is important to make sure that they are operating in the proper air flow andwater flow range. Either a two-way or a three-way valve controls the coils.
The most important factor when sizing valves is the coefficient of velocity or Cv.The Cv is definedas the flow rate, in gallons of 60°F (15.56°C) water, that will pass through the valve in one minutewith a one pound pressure drop.The coefficient of velocity, which is commonly called the flowcoefficient, is an industry standard rating. Valves having the same flow coefficient rating,regardless of manufacturer, will have the same waterside performance characteristics.
The equation that governs valve sizing is:
Where
Cv=Flow coefficient
GPM=The maximum water flow rate through the valve in gallons per minute
P=The maximum allowable differential pressure across the valve in psi
The flow and differential pressure are generally the known quantities.The equation is solved forthe flow coefficient.The flow coefficient is then compared to the published CV values for the controlvalves that are available.The control valve with the CV that is the closest, but greater than, thecalculated flow coefficient is the correct choice for the control valve.This choice will keep the valvepressure drop below the maximum allowable valve pressure drop.The valve pressure drop shouldthen be checked against the coil pressure drop. If the coil pressure drop is appreciably larger thanthe valve pressure drop, a valve with a smaller CV should be selected to produce a larger controlvalve pressure drop. If this new valve has a pressure drop that is much larger than the maximumallowable pressure drop for valves, the system designer should be consulted to make sure that thesystem hot water pumps can deliver the water at the new conditions.
Electric Reheat
Electric heating coils are applied onVAV terminal units as terminal reheat devices. Electric heat coilcapacity is rated in kilowatts (kW). Coils are available with the total capacity divided into one, two,or three stages.
Electric heat coils are available in single-phase or three-phase models.This refers to the type ofpower source connected to the coil. Single-phase models have resistance elements internallyconnected in parallel.Three- phase models have resistance elements internally connected in adelta or a wye configuration.
The current draw for the electric coil will depend upon whether it is a single-phase coil or a three-phase coil.The current draw is necessary for determining what size wire should be used to powerthe electric coils and how big the primary power fusing should be.
The equations for current draw for these coils are:
VariTrane three-phase electric heat is available in balanced configurations. For example, a 9 kWthree-phase coil, each stage would carry 1/3 or 3 kW of the load.
It is important to note that these coils have certain minimum airflow rates for each amount of kWheat the coil can supply to operate safely.These airflow values are based upon a maximum riseacross the electric heat coil of 50°F (28°C).

Electric heat coils are available with magnetic or mercury contactors. Magnetic contactors are lessexpensive than mercury contactors. However, mercury contactors can be cycled at a more rapidrate without failing. Mercury contactors are rated for heavier duty use and should be used in asmany applications as possible. For pneumatic applications the electric coils are available withfactory-installed pressure-electric switches.
Insulation
Matte-Faced
This type of insulation is used for typical applications. It consists of a fiberglass core covered bya high-density skin.The dual-density construction provides good sound attenuation and thermalperformance.
Foil-Faced
This type of insulation is used in applications where there is some concern regarding airbornecontaminants entering the space, or dirt being trapped in the fibers of the insulation.The insulationis composed of a fiberglass core laminated to a foil sheet. Foil-faced insulation will provide thesame sound attenuation performance as matte-faced insulation.
Double-Wall
This type of insulation is used in applications where there is extreme concern regarding airbornecontaminants entering the space or dirt being trapped in the fibers of the insulation. The insulationis the same as the matte-faced insulation. However, after the insulation is installed, a second solidwall of 26-gage steel covers the insulation. All wire penetrations of this insulation are covered bya grommet.This type of insulation will result in higher discharge and radiated sound power.

Encapsulated edges
Insulation in aVAV terminal unit is used to avoid condensationon the outside of the unit, to reduce the heat transfer from thecold primary air entering the unit, and to reduce the unit noise.TheVariTrane line offers four types of unit insulation.The typeof facing classifies the types of insulation.To enhance IAQeffectiveness, edges of all insulation types have metalencapsulated edges.

Application Considerations
Closed-Cell
This type of insulation is used in applications where IAQ and fibers are of primary concern.Theacoustics of the closed-cell insulation are similar to double-wall insulation.The thermal propertiesare similar to fiberglass insulation.This insulation contains no fiberglass.
Acoustics
Acoustical Best Practices
Acoustics with terminal units is sometimes more confusing than it needs to be. As we know, lowervelocities within a unit leads to improved acoustical performance. Additionally, if theVAV terminalunit has a fan, a lower RPM provides better Acoustical performance. It is as simple as that—thereare some catches, however.
Additional considerations will be discussed in more detail throughout this portion of ApplicationConsiderations, such as unit size and type, appurtenance affects (due to insulation, attenuation,etc.), certification, and computer modeling. Let’s take a look at the first consideration, sizing ofunits.
Sizing of Units
Before blindly increasing the size of units, we must first understand what is setting the acousticswithin the space. In general, over 95% of acoustics in VAV terminal units, which set the soundpressure levels and ultimately the NC within the space, is from radiated sound. This is readilyknown for fan-powered units, but less commonly known for single- and dual-duct units. Radiatedsound emanates from the unit and enters the occupied space via means other than through thesupply ductwork. The most typical path is through the plenum space, then through the ceiling, theninto the occupied space. While discharge sound should never be ignored, radiated sound is themost dominant and usually the most critical sound source.
When increasing air valve sizes, BE CAREFUL. Oversizing an air valve can adversely impactthe ability to modulate and properly control temperature in the space. In extremelyoversized situations, the air valve will operate like a two-position controlled device, with air eitherbeing “on”, or “off”, and not really much in between.The best way to avoid this is to understand thatthe minimum for most air valves is 300 FPM.This is a function of the flow sensing device and theability of the pressure transducer and controller to properly read and report flow.This is notmanufacturer specific, as physics applies to all.Therefore, when sizing air valves, regardless of themax cooling velocity the minimum velocity for proper pressure independent flow is 300 FPM.
Modulation capability and range is vital for proper operation ofVAV systems. With oversized units,the unit will act as a constant volume system eliminating the energy savings and individual zonecontrol advantages ofVAV systems. A good rule of thumb is to size cooling airflow for around 2000FPM. VAV systems only operate at full flow when there is a maximum call for cooling in the zone.The greatest portion of the time, an air valve will be operating at partial flows.
When sizing fan-powered units, the fan airflow range can be determined by looking at the fan-curve. Because parallel and series fan-powered units operate at a constant fan flow, selections canbe made all the way to the lowest flow ranges of the fan curve. A good balance of performance andcost is to select fans at 70-80% of maximum fan flow.
Insulation types
Insulation is a factor to consider when dealing with the acoustics of terminal units. Most insulationtypes will provide similar acoustical results, but there are exceptions. Double-wall and closed-cellfoam insulation will generally increase your sound levels because of the increased reflectivesurface area that the solid inner-wall and closed-cell construction provides.This increase in soundwill have to be balanced with the IAQ and cleanability considerations of the dual-wall and closed-cell construction.
VAV-PRC011-EN 139
Application Considerations
Placement of units
Unit placement in a building can have a significant impact on the acceptable sound levels. Locatingunits above non-critical spaces (hallways, closets, and storerooms) will help to contain radiatedsound from entering the critical occupied zones.
Unit Attenuation
Terminal unit-installed attenuators are an option available to provide path sound attenuation.Manufacturer-provided attenuators on the discharge of a terminal unit are targeted at reducingdischarge path noise and are typically a simple lined piece of ductwork. It would often be easier andless expensive to design the downstream ductwork to be slightly longer and require the installingcontractor to include lining in it. Attenuators on the plenum inlet of fan-powered terminals aretargeted at reducing radiated path noise since the plenum opening on a fan-powered terminal unitis typically the critical path sound source. Significant reduction in radiated path noise can resultfrom a well-designed inlet attenuator.The attenuation from these attenuators is due to simpleabsorption from the attenuator lining and occupant line of sight sound path obstruction.Therefore,longer attenuators and attenuators that require the sound to turn multiple corners before reachingthe occupied space provide superior results, particularly in the lower frequency bands.
Attenuators that are simple “cups” at the plenum inlet(s) have been shown inTrane’s acousticalmock-up to provide no measurable reduction in sound pressure in the critical octave bands whichset the occupied space noise criteria.
Certification andTesting
Terminal units should be submitted based on the same criteria.There are several ways to ensurethis by certification and testing.
Raw unit sound data can be good measurement criteria for evaluation. In using this as a basis forcomparison, the designer needs to make sure that the information is based on the AHRI Standard880-2011 that gives the procedure for testing.
Specifying NC or RC sound levels is a possible comparison, but the designer needs to be sure thecomparison is fair.Two options are to specify the attenuation effect on which you would like theunits to be evaluated or to specify that AHRI Standard 885-2008 transfer functions be used.Theimportance of AHRI Standard 885-2008 is that it is the first AHRI Standard that specifies exacttransfer functions to be used for evaluation. Previous versions of the standard gave guidelines, butthe manufacturers could choose their own set of factors.

Application Considerations
By using NC sound levels, it is possible to express acceptable sound levels for various types ofbuildings or environments. A few examples are:
Path Attenuation
Sound is generated by a terminal unit can reach the occupied space along several paths.Theterminal unit generated sound will lose energy—i.e., the energy is absorbed by path obstacles—as it travels to the occupied space.This acoustical energy dissipation as it travels to the occupiedspace is called path attenuation.The amount of energy lost along a particular path can bequantified and predicted using the procedure outlined in AHRI-885. Each path must be consideredwhen determining acceptable sound power generated by a terminal unit.
The term “transfer function” is often used to describe the entire path attenuation value for eachoctave band (i.e., the sum of all components of a particular path).
Examples of path attenuation include locating the terminal unit away from the occupied space,increasing the STC (sound transmission classification) of the ceiling tile used, internally liningductwork, drywall lagging the ceiling tiles or enclosing the terminal unit in drywall. All of thesechoices have costs associated with them that must be weighed against the benefits. Some of thesealternatives can be acoustically evaluated from application data provided inAHRI-885. Others mayrequire professional analysis from an acoustical consultant.
Computer Modeling
Computer modeling of acoustical paths is available to help estimate sound levels and determineproblem sources.The software used byTrane for computer modeling is calledTrane AcousticsProgram (TAP™).

Duct Design
Designing cost-effective VAV duct systems is challenging. Some duct design methods result inbetter pressure balance than others do. Duct shape and duct material can influence duct systemdesign and cost. In addition, duct layout is properly designed for optimal duct installation andoperation.
Duct Design Program
Trane has developed a computer program, VariTrane™ Duct Designer, to aid in the duct designprocess.This program is used to calculate duct sizes, fitting sizes, terminal unit sizes, and pressuredrops according to the equal friction or static regain method.The duct design program can beeasily incorporated into the selection ofVAV terminal units.The inputs and outputs for the programenableVariTrane units to be selected based on the conditions you require.This makes selecting andscheduling units much easier. Contact the local sales office or theTrane C.D.S.™ department formore details on this program.
Design Methods
The two most widely used supply duct design methods—equal friction and static regain—arediscussed below.
Equal Friction – Using this method, ducts are sized at design flow to have roughly the same staticpressure drop for every 100 feet of duct. Static pressures throughout the duct system can bebalanced at design flow using balancing dampers, but are no longer balanced at part load flows.For this reason, equal friction duct designs are better suited for constant volume systems than forVAV systems. If the equal friction method is used for theVAV supply duct design, the terminal unitsusually require pressure-independent (PI) control capability to avoid excessive flow rates whenduct pressures are high.
In VAV systems, the ducts located downstream of the terminal unit are usually sized for equalfriction.The advantage of this design method is its simplicity. Often, calculations can be madeusing simple tables and duct calculators. Drawbacks include increased higher total pressure dropsand higher operating costs.
Static Regain – In the static regain method, ducts are sized to maintain constant static pressurein each section, which is achieved by balancing the total and velocity pressure drops of eachsection. In other words, static pressure is “regained” by the loss of velocity pressure. Since thestatic pressures throughout the duct system are roughly balanced at design and part load flow,static regain duct designs can be used successfully for either constant volume or VAV systems.When the static regain method is used for VAV systems, the system is roughly pressure balancedat design.
Advantages of the static regain method include reduced total pressure drops, lower operatingcosts, and balanced pressures over a wide range of flows.The drawback of this design is the time-consuming, iterative calculation procedure and for large systems, it is essential to have a ductdesign computer program.

Common Mistakes
Some of the most common system or installation errors are discussed below.
Reducers at Unit Inlet
This problem is a very common issue that is seen in applications of VariTrane products. It is oftenmistaken by those in the field as an unacceptably large static pressure drop through the unit. It isalso sometimes mistaken as a malfunctioning flow ring, pressure transducer (if DDC or analogelectronic controls are present) or PVR (if pneumatic controls are present).
This problem is sometimes unknowingly encountered because of the capability of the VariTraneunit to allow greater airflow for a specific size duct than other terminal units. For example, a projectengineer specifies an 8" (203 mm) round take off from the main duct trunk to theVAV terminal unit.The person supplying the VAV terminal unit checks the required airflow and finds that a VariTraneunit with a 6" (152 mm) inlet will provide the specified terminal unit performance.The terminal unitsupplier submits, receives approval, and orders the 6" (152 mm) inlet unit.While this is happening,the installing contractor has run the connecting duct from the main trunk to the terminal unit in thespecified 8" (152 mm) round.The unit arrives at the job site, and the installer notices that the 8" (203mm) duct and the 6" (152 mm) terminal unit inlet do not match.To get the unit installed, an 8- to6-inch reducer is placed at the inlet to the terminal unit air valve.
The reducer will cause a phenomenon called flow separation at the unit inlet. Fluid dynamicsanalysis can present a detailed technical explanation of flow separation, but the characteristicsimportant to this discussion are the production of pressure loss and turbulence. The reducer willhave a significant static pressure drop associated with it since the air velocity is increased (i.e.,static pressure is given up for increased velocity pressure). The pressure loss is sometimesmistaken as a loss due to the function of the terminal unit.The turbulence is at its greatest justdownstream of the reducer. Unfortunately, this is the location of the flow ring at the air-valve inlet.The reducer will cause the flow ring to give an inaccurate and inconsistent reading because of theturbulent air.
The solutions to this situation are:
• Locate the reducer upstream of the terminal unit at least three duct diameters to eliminate flowseparation and turbulence at the unit inlet and to improve the airflow measurement accuracy.
• Consider proper sizing of the terminal unit in the duct design and account for the pressure lossof the reducer in the central fan selection if a reducer is required. Be cautious of “oversizing”a VAV terminal. It is good practice to make sure that the inlet duct velocity at the minimumairflow setting is no lower than 500 feet per minute.
Improper Use of Flexible Ductwork
While flexible ductwork has many benefits, improper use can cause numerous problems in aVAVsystem. Flexible ductwork causes turbulent airflow and relatively large static pressure drops.Flexible ductwork at a primary damper inlet (i.e., the flow sensor location) may cause flow accuracyand repeatability problems due to turbulence.The use of flexible ductwork should be primarilylimited to the downstream side of the terminal units in a VAV system. Use of flexible ductworkupstream of terminal units should be kept to an absolute minimum. All runs of flexible ductworkshould be kept as short as possible. While most know these guidelines, the ease of installationwhich flexible ductwork provides is always an enticement to push the limits of what are acceptablepractices.
Static Pressure Measurement Errors
Improper measurement techniques for static pressure can lead many to mistakenly believe that theterminal unit is causing a large pressure drop in the system.The chief error made here is taking astatic pressure measurement in turbulent locations such as flexible ductwork or near transitions.
VAV-PRC011-EN 143
Application Considerations
This produces invalid static pressure readings. Another error commonly made is trying to read thestatic pressure at the same point as the flow sensing device.The inlets to VAV terminal unitsproduce turbulence and will give poor readings. Flow sensors with their multiple-point averagingcapability are best equipped to deal with this type of flow, while a single-point static probe is not.Another common error is the incorrect orientation of the static pressure probe.The static pressureis correctly measured when the probe is oriented perpendicular to the direction of airflow.Theprobe, or a part of it, should never be facing the direction of airflow, because the total pressure willinfluence the reading of the probe.
